Eight-tump circuit west from Trentham Gardens&colon; Oulton Heath - Coombesdale Hill - The Ridding - Berth Hill - Camp Hill - Whitmore Heath - Hanchurch Hills - Kingswood Bank&period; Hoped to traverse from the north but thwarted by high barbed wire fence on motorway bridge at SJ852408 so headed 800m south along road to ascend by public footpath instead&period; Visited all four summit contenders&period; Good views both sides of the ridge&period;

From Monkey Forest cp&period; Past the Go Ape stuff & follow Trentham Gardens boundary fence through two gates & down a dell&comma; over a bridge & steeply up the other side&period; To the four bumps on the ridge&period; Woods closed due to high winds&comma; but ignored it because it wasn't windy&period;

From bridge over what must be the noisiest and busiest part of the M6&colon; An SSSI inside a 6 foot high wire grid fence&comma; but with wooden footpath gate&period; Following comments from RHW&comma; &lpar;expecting the grid ref to be revised&rpar; I went back on 21&sol;01&sol;2015 to visit the true high point on the ridge running North from the SSSI
